OREGANO OIL, WILD - Origanum vulgare

• The herb Oregano that we all know as a great flavour in Mediterranean cuisine is a valuable addition to our diet as it has excellent antibacterial properties and is an aid to digestion.
• The essential oil derived from the wild Oreganum Vulgare has a wide spectrum of benefits. Oregano has the highest content of phenols of all the oils from herbs.
• It can be added to either your usual cleaning products or a mix of oils and vinegar to create a very powerful antibacterial cleaner for the home.
• Besides being antibacterial, it is anti fungal and antiviral, and as such is very effective in treating athlete’s foot and nail fungus.
• As Oregano oil is anti inflammatory, diluted in a carrier oil such as almond or coconut it can be applied to any painful area, ie rheumatic joints or sore muscles, also to relieve allergic reactions.
• Used as a vapour inhalation it is good for colds and sinus problems, and acts as a decongestant.
• A few drops in water makes a good mouthwash for toothache and sore throats.
